Preparation for high doses?

[Psychoid]

Hi everyone!

Tonight I am going to take my first high dose of mushrooms. which is gonna be 5-6 grams dried. I am wondering if there are special things you do to prepare for such a trip. I have had a good night of sleep, meditated a bit before getting up, and will do my best to only ingest natural food. Also, how long before eating the shrooms should I stop eating? I usually do not eat for at least 4 hours before, is this enough?

I plan to make a lemon tea, by extracting lemon juice from real lemons, then put my shrooms in littles pieces and soak them in the lemon juice for about 20 minutes, then add some warm water and stir the mixture a bit, then wait another 20 minutes before drinking the magic potion

Does this sound like a good plan? Any advice?

being relaxed is the best preparation. being ready and unafraid.

i normally simmer my mushrooms till they become a black, jelly like tea.
seems to work best but my body tries to reject it on the way down

keep us informed

Unafraid? I'm relaxed (how couldn't I after 12 hours of sleep), I feel ready, but still I'm a bit scared... well scared isn't the right word, it's not fear I feel, it's more... uhmmm.... apprehension would come closer to it I think, still I can't seem to find the real word... if such a word exists.

EDIT: By simmering you shrooms, don't you destroy some psilocybin, as it usually is destroyed at about 60 celcius degrees (if I remember well)?

not in my experience. ive boiled them for almost an hour and the tea seem to
get stronger. and less palatable

Aprehension is a good sign and perfectly normal . Just take it and close your eyes , empty your mind and relax .

Do I have to expect a very much harder come-up, compared to a 2.5-3g dose?

 

[druglessdouglas]

havnt you taken them yet?
the comeup will probably be fast. at higher doses you tend to get more absorbed in the trip. its more profound, you forget to be scared

the aprehention is normal. i wont go potholing with someone who doesnt feel aprehensive before climbing into the ground.

 

[Psychoid]

OK. Thanks for your answers everyone. No I haven't taken them yet, the intake is planned in about 4 hours. I still have to go buy some lemons. Also I prefer to trip at night so I am gonna wait until there's no more sun.

Now I'll go meditate. Cya

 

[GOD]

Forget the lemons and just powder it and make a tea .

Why? Even if it does not change the effect (but from my experiences I firmly believe it does), I think it mixes pretty well with the taste of shrooms

"I believe for every drop of rain that falls, a flower grows.
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night, a candle glows.
I believe for everyone who goes astray, someone will come to show the way.
I believe, I believe.
I believe above the storm the smallest pray'r will still be heard.
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word.
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry, or touch a leaf or see the sky,
Then I know why I believe!"

The fases are build up more rapidly for sure.

On my last trip (addressed in this section), there was a drastic gained intensity every 5 minutes.

I also noticed the absence of the ups and downs at the peak, it was just constantly going. Strange enough after 2 hours there were no visuals, just a constant mind blowing experience with pretty much no space at all to take a breath for a moment of silence. Only rarely a fragile bridge to stand on for a few seconds.

Just give yourself completely out of hands. Don't even try to remember who you are if you have forgotten yourself.

I know why I believe

So the time of ingestion is coming After posting this I am going to prepare everything (cut shrooms in little pieces, extract juice from lemon, prepare music on my MP3, just in case etc...).

I have a last question, which might sound stupid but well... I'm asking it anyway! I am pretty nearsighted, and I am wondering if it would be a good idea to wear my contact lenses while I'm tripping?

 

[druglessdouglas]

contact lenses, i dont wear them but ive helped others look for theirs while tripping. they usualy turn up behind someones eye later. you wont miss them tonight if you take them out.
bon voyage

Hahaha, now isn’t that metaphoric!
I’d leave the contact lenses behind.

Just do as GOD say’s and don’t bother with the lemon, unless you feel you need it to make the brew more palatable. I wouldn’t bother with simmering either, just powder the mushrooms and immerse them in water, or if you cant do that, break them up into the smallest possible pieces (or straight up crush them) and strain them at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour, then drink.

All the best man!
